    I don’t think there’s ever been anything I’ve absolutely needed to see there and used nitter for a couple of curiosities.

    I’m sure I won’t miss it.

    I mean it’s not much of a change, considering a minimal amount of activity would result in you getting bombarded with super pushy sign-in popups.

    With this and Reddit pulling the shenanigans they are pulling, it sucks to see a large portion of Google’s results suddenly become useless, but it’s nothing but a growing pain in the path to a more decentralized internet.

      Makes you wonder if Google is going to deprioritize reddit and Twitter in search.

      I have to think that would have some sort of effect.

    He has to be purposely running into the ground. That’s the move of a person who has no idea what they’re doing.

    Yea fuck’em… I had my account banned for no apparent reason recently and I now have no plan to use their garbage platform.

        Me too. I’m not gonna be on a platform run by someone who just wants it to exhibit control over dissent + try and build his weird parasocial relationships with teens and children.

    I am not logging back into Twitter. They already lost my trust.

    It’s so nice of them them to give me another incentive not to visit.

    Yep I noticed that today. Oh well, I’m never signing back into Twit. No more tweet reading for me unless somebody posts a screenshot I guess.

    It’s just javascript. You can use ublock zap feature to remove the modal, this is why nitter is still working.

    To much work for them to do authorization at the API level, they most likely fired all of their backend engineers already.

      Nitter isn’t working anymore though, and trying to view a tweet while logged out forces you to twitter.com/i/flow/login now so you can’t just block the modal

      Can you enlighten me how this works? I would love to be able to zap that modal :)
      Even if its only another resource. I tried what i could find online but it keeps pushing me to the /i/flow/login

        Yeah. It looks like I was mistaken and was in some sort of a/b test. The new version now redirect you to a login page, there is no modal anymore :( . Sorry for the false hopes.

      Good to hear! I was thinking nitter isn’t working anymore

      Edit :

      It doesn’t work, looks like I’ll use mastodon more often

        You’re right. My bad, we can’t zap it or use nitter anymore :(

      I don’t think so? It seems like you’re directed to a login page. There is no modal and no content under it. I’m only on my phone now so can’t be that sure, but it looks like it.

        Yes. You’re right. I was in some sort of A/B testing. This morning I can’t zap it anymore. It’s just redirecting to /i/flow/login :/

    I only ever visited Twitter by way of embedded videos in articles and opinion pieces where they were linked. Now I’ll never visit because I don’t care enough to have an account. Great job Twitter!

    I tried to log in recently and my account I had only used to follow a few people back in the day was banned. Then I tried to make a new account and it kept erroring out, sending me back to the home feed. Is Elon just doing all the programming himself now?
